Danxia Mountain Huguo Temple
丹霞山护国寺
A Ming-dynasty temple on Danxia Mountain in Panzhou, with stone steps, an ancient pagoda and a summit view; a traditional scenic spot in Panzhou.
Danxia Mountain lies in Danxia Town, Panzhou City. The Huguo Temple on its summit was first built in the Ming dynasty and is a well-known Buddhist temple in southwestern Guizhou. Climbing the stone steps brings you past the mountain gate, the Shuanglan Pavilion, an ancient pagoda and other buildings, and from the top the views open wide over the surrounding fields and hills. The temple is free to enter, and the climb takes about half an hour to an hour; take care on the steep sections. It can be combined with Tuole's ancient ginkgo or with a day in Panzhou city.
